Installation & Owner’s Manual
Attention New Spa Owner!
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Portofino spa! Listed below
are important maintenance recommendations you should observe on a
regular basis to protect your new investment.
Filter Maintenance
Your new spa is equipped with an advanced 2-stage water filtration
system that provides unsurpassed water quality! To ensure maximum water
quality at all times, you should clean and reuse the larger pleated filter cartridge every month. See page 17-18 for detailed filter cleaning/replacement instructions.
Water Maintenance
You will want to replace the spa’s water every 3 to 6 months. The frequency depends on a number of variables including the frequency of use, number of users, attention paid to water quality maintenance, etc. You will
know it is time for a change when you cannot control sudsing and/or you
can no longer get the normal feel or sparkle to the water, even though the
key water balance measurements are all within the proper parameters. See
page 22 for additional information.

1.0 Important Spa Owner’s Information
Your Portofino spa is constructed of the highest standards and is
capable of providing many years of trouble-free use. However,
because heat retentive materials are utilized to insulate the spa for
efficient operation, an uncovered spa surface directly exposed to
sunlight and high temperatures for an extended period of time is
subject to permanent damage. Damage caused by exposing the
spa to this abuse is not covered by warranty. We recommend that
you always keep the spa full of water when it is exposed to direct
sunlight and that you keep the Sundance insulating cover in place at
all times when the spa is not in use. Read and carefully follow the
requirements for your spa’s support base.
(page 5-6).
Sundance Spas Inc. constantly strives to offer the finest spas available, therefore modifications and enhancements may be made
which affect the specifications, illustrations and/or instructions
contained herein.

3.0 Important Safety Instructions
When installing and using this equipment, basic safety
precautions should always be followed, including the
following:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING THE SPA!
2. DANGER - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Install spa at least
5 feet (1.5 m) from all metal surfaces. (A spa may be installed
within 5 feet (1.5 m) of metal surfaces, if in accordance with the
country electrical code).
3. DANGER - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Do not permit any
electric appliance such as a light, telephone, radio, or television
within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the spa.
4. INSTALLATION - The spa must be installed in such a manner
as to provide drainage of the compartment for electrical components.
5. CAUTION, 240 VAC POWERED SPAS - These spas must be
hard wired to your household electrical service box only. Do not
use an extension cord or any other disconnectable power cord.
The use of an extension cord or a disconnectable power cord is
highly dangerous and will void all warranties!
6. A wire connector marked ground “GRN” is provided within the
power box.
electric shock, connect this terminal or connector to the grounding terminal of your electrical service or supply panel with a
continuous green insulating copper wire equivalent in size to the
circuit conductors supplying this equipment, but no smaller than
#8 AWG (8.4 mm2). In addition, a second wire connector is
provided for bonding to local ground points. To reduce the risk
of electrical shock, this connector should be bonded with a #8
AWG (8.4 mm2) copper wire to any metal ladders, water pipes,
or other metal within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the spa.
7. The electrical supply for this product must include a suitably

rated switch or circuit breaker to open all ungrounded supply
conductors to comply with the country electrical code.
8. Before entering a spa or hot tub the user should measure the
water temperature with an accurate thermometer since the
tolerance of the water temperature regulating device may vary
as much as ±5 °F (±3 °C).
9. Always enter and exit the spa slowly and cautiously. Wet
surfaces are slippery.
10. Do not use the spa alone.
11.WARNING - RISK OF CHILD DROWNING. Extreme caution
must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access by children.
To avoid accidents, ensure that children cannot use a spa or hot
tub unless they are supervised at all times.
12. DANGER - To reduce the risk of injury, do not remove any drain
suction gate or cover.
13. Never use the weir gate for sitting or resting your feet. It is
designed to float freely.
14. The water in the spa or hot tub should never exceed 104 °F (40
°C). Water temperatures between 100 °F (38 °C) and 104 °F
(40 °C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water
temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceeding
10-15 minutes) and for young children.
15. Since excessive water temperatures have potential for causing
fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or
potentially pregnant women should limit spa or hot tub water
temperatures to 100 °F (38 °C).
16. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa or
hot tub use may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of
drowning.
17. Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart
disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa
or hot tub.
18. Persons using medication should consult a physician before
using a spa or hot tub since some medications may induce
drowsiness while other medications may affect heart rate, blood
pressure, and circulation.
19. Long exposures in the spa may result in nausea, dizziness, or
fainting. Observe a reasonable time limit, leave the spa, then
shower, cool down, and if you wish, return for another brief stay.
3
20. Excessive temperatures may cause hyperthermia. Symptoms
and first aid information are as follows:
• HEAT STROKE: The most susceptible people are the very
young and elderly, alcoholics, and most people under the influence of drugs, medication and alcohol.
• SYMPTOMS: Hyperthermia causes loss of salt, sweating,
dizziness, headache, dryness of mouth and nausea, faintness
and/or unconsciousness, convulsions, flushed appearance of
skin, and rapid pulse and/or weak, shallow breathing.
• TREATMENT: Place the victim on his back, head slightly elevated. Apply wet cloths or ice packs to the head, wrap the body
in a sheet, pouring on a small amount of water. Follow with a
cool shower or bath. Get medical attention as soon as possible.
21. It is recommended that the following emergency telephone
numbers be listed at the nearest telephone: physician, hospital,
ambulance and police.
22. Save these instructions!
3.1 General Electrical Safety Instructions
Your new Portofino spa is equipped with the “state-of-the-art” LX-10
equipment system. It contains the most advanced safety and
self-protective equipment in the industry. Nonetheless, this spa
must be installed properly to insure dependable usage. Please
contact your dealer if you have any questions regarding your installation. In the event they are unable to answer your questions, direct
your inquiries to Sundance Spas Inc. Please refer to the back of this
manual for our address.
Proper grounding is extremely important. Portofino spas are
equipped with a current collector system. A pressure-type wire
connector is provided outside the control box, located behind the
equipment door to permit connection of a bonding wire between this
point and any ground metal equipment, metal water pipe or conduit
within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the spa, or copper clad grounding rod buried
within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the spa. The bonding wire must be at least
#8 AWG (8.4 mm
2
) solid copper wire. This is a very important safety
assurance feature. Before installing this spa, check with the local
electrical authority to insure the installation conforms to local country/area state codes.
4
4.0 Choosing a Location
IMPORTANT: Because of the combined weight of the spa,
water, and users, it is extremely important that the base
upon which the spa rests be smooth, flat, level and capable
of uniformly supporting this weight without shifting or settling for the
entire time the spa is in place. If the spa is placed on a surface
which does not meet these requirements, damage to the skirt and/or
the spa shell may result. Damage caused by improper support is
not covered under the manufacturer’s warranty. It is the responsibility of the spa owner to assure the integrity of the support at all times.
We recommend a poured, reinforced concrete slab with a minimum
thickness of 4 inches (10 cm). Wood decking is also acceptable,
provided it is constructed so that it meets the requirements outlined
above. The spa must be installed in such a manner as to provide
drainage away from the spa. Placing the spa in a depression
without provisions for proper drainage could allow rain, overflow and
other casual water to flood the equipment and create a wet condition
in which it would sit.
For spas which will be recessed into a floor or deck, install so as to
permit access to the equipment, either from above or below, for
servicing. Make certain that there are no obstructions that would
prevent removal of the cabinet side panels, especially on the side
with the equipment pack. Make sure provisions are made for draining the spa.
4.1 Outdoor Location
In selecting the ideal outdoor location for your spa, we suggest that
you take into consideration:
1. The proximity to changing area and shelter around spa (espe-
cially in colder weather).
2. The pathway to and from your spa (this should be free of debris
so that dirt and leaves are not easily tracked into the spa).
3. Closeness to trees and shrubbery (remember that leaves and
birds could create extra work in keeping the spa clean).
4. A sheltered environment (less wind and weather exposure can
result in lowered operation and maintenance costs).
5. The overall enhancement of your environment.
6. It is preferable not to place the spa under a gutter-less roof
overhang since runoff water will shorten the life expectancy of
the spa cover.
5
4.2 Indoor Location
For indoor installations, be certain to make provisions for proper
ventilation. When the spa is in use, considerable amounts of moisture will escape. This can damage various surfaces over time. A
dehumidifier can help control the moisture in the room. If you have
any questions regarding the placement or installation of your spa,
consult your authorized Portofino dealer.
120/240 Volt Convertible Models
A spa connected to a 120 VAC electrical service must be located
close enough to a grounded, grounding-type electrical outlet so that
the included power cord can be plugged directly into it. DO NOT
USE AN EXTENSION CORD as this could cause damage to the
spa’s equipment due to insufficient voltage. The power supplied to
this spa must be a dedicated circuit with no other appliances or
lights sharing the power provided by the circuit.

with that step.
series of start-up displays. Refer to section 9.0 (page 12) for
additional information.
7.1 Filling the Spa
Clear all debris from the spa. Although the spa shell has been
polished at the factory, you may want to treat it with a specially
formulated spa cleaner. For more information, consult your dealer
prior to filling it. Only spas with a smooth acrylic surface require
waxing. It is not necessary to wax spas with the textured Quarite™
surface.
During power-up, the control panel will display a
Remove the filter cover, then remove the filter cartridge as outlined
in section 10.1 (Page 17-18). Place the end of your garden hose into
the filter compartment, then fill spa. For Solo models only - fill the
spa with water from a garden hose until the water level is just below
the neck jets.
Refer to section 14.1 (page 29).
For Metro and
Caprio models, fill until water level is halfway up the filter skimmer.
Refer to sections 14.2-14.3 (page 30).
Do not overfill. Never fill
with water from a water softener. If your water is extremely “hard”, it
is preferable to fill half way with hard water and the rest of the way
with softened water. Or, you may fill entirely with hard water if you
use a special water additive available from your Portofino dealer.
9
Always refill with garden hose in filter compartment. This helps to
purge trapped air from pump intakes. Failure to do so may cause
air to be trapped in either pump 1 or the circulation pump’s intake
(air lock), preventing either pump from circulating water. After filling,
make sure the filter is installed properly before applying power to the
spa.
Refer to section 10.1 (Page 17-18) “Cleaning the Filter” for
specific cleaning and installation instructions.
Solo Models Only - For installations that do not incorporate permanent drain plumbing, we recommend that you seal off the overflow
plumbing by removing the s/s overflow fitting and install the provided
plug and O-ring.

7.2 Safety Check
Open the cabinet access panel and check the pump unions to make
sure they are hand tight.
Loosening can occur during shipping and handling. Solo models
only - turn the drain valve off.
Refer to sections 13.1-13.3 (page 28-29).
Refer to section 13.1 (page 28).
7.3 Initiating Water Circulation
Depress the JETS button on the control panel. This
causes the pump to activate water flow to the jets. If
the pump is properly primed, you should be able to feel
a steady flow of water through at least some of the jets.
After draining and refilling the spa, it is possible that the pump does
not prime adequately. Trapped air in the plumbing system can be
the reason for loss of prime. In this case, turn off power to the spa
and loosen the cap of the Massage Selector and carefully let
trapped air escape from the plumbing.

9.7 Filtration Options
Your new spa includes a 24-hour circulation pump which filters the
water continuously while using less energy than a common 100 watt
light bulb! The circulation pump draws water through the short side
of the double-ended filter cartridge and effectively removes small
debris in your spa.
Note: the 24-hour circulation pump system also
supplies heated water to the spa when the heater turns on. This
features cannot be altered or disabled.
The control system activates a programmable “standard” or
“economy” skimming/heating cycle to remove larger debris missed
by the 24-hour circulation pump filtration system. These cycles
utilize pump#1 and the larger filter cartridge end to quickly clear
“skim” the water of large debris and minimize their “bathtub ring”
effect. Apart from their skimming benefit, each mode also effects
the operation of your spa’s heater. Refer to sections 9.8 and 9.9
below for additional information.
9.8 Standard Skimming/Heating Modes (F0 - F3)
Standard skimming/heating modes are typically selected by customers in cold climates where heatup times are extended due to lower
ambient temperatures. In these modes, the water temperature is
regulated by the set temperature, 24-hour circulation pump, and
heater which turns on as needed. After the programmed set temperature is reached, the heater turns off and the circulation pump
continues to operate 24-hours to filter and clean your spa.
9.9 Economy Skimming/Heating Modes (F4 - F6)
Economy skimming/heating modes are typically selected by customers in warm climates where heatup times are minimized due to
higher ambient temperatures. In these modes, the water temperature is regulated by the set temperature, 24-hour circulation pump,
and heater only while a programmed filter cycle is running (unless in
summer logic; see section 11.1, page 24).
Note: these modes
consume far less energy than standard modes F0-F3 outlined
above.
9.10 Lock Modes (L1 - L2)
These modes are designed for use during spa service or to prevent
unauthorized use.

9.11 Selecting The Skimming/Heating Mode
Press and hold both control panel WARMER and COOLER
buttons at the same time, then release. Then press either WARMER
or COOLER button to select skimming/heater mode F0-F6 or
lock modes L1-L2 below:
Standard Skimming/Heating Modes
F0 5 minutes of skimming per day (one 5 minute
“Blow-Out” cycle every 24 hours to purge all
plumbing lines)
F1 1 hour of skimming per day (one 30-minute
cycle every 12 hours); this is the factory default
setting.
F2 1.5 hours of skimming per day (one 30-minute
cycle every 8 hours)
F3 2 hours of skimming per day (one 30-minute
cycle every 6 hours)
Economy Skimming/Heating Modes
F4 1 hour of skimming/heating per day (one
30-minute cycle every twelve hours)
F5 1.5 hours of skimming/heating per day (one
30-minute cycle every eight hours)
F6 2 hours of skimming/heating per day (one
30-minute cycle every six hours)
Lock Modes
L1 Lock Out (disables all spa functions to permit
filter cleaning)
L2 Lock Mode (disables the jets and light buttons to
prevent unauthorized use of spa.) Skimming/
heating cycle will continue to operate as
programmed in this mode. The temperature
display flashes when this function is enabled.
Example: the “F3” skimming/heating cycle was
enabled prior to choosing lock mode. The spa
continues to perform the “F3” cycle until lock
mode is canceled, allowing another cycle to be
selected.
16
To set a time for the first skimming/heating cycle, simply turn power
on to the spa two minutes prior to the desired time.
EXAMPLE: If
you desire your first skimming/heating cycle to begin at 10:00 AM
turn off power to the spa and turn it back on again at 9:58 AM. Note:
start time is approximate and may vary slightly from day to day.
10.0 Care And Maintenance
Proper and regular maintenance of your spa will help it retain its
beauty and performance. Your authorized Portofino dealer can
supply you with all the information, supplies and accessory products
you will need to accomplish this.

drawing water through the smaller side of the cartridge. Larger
debris are filtered by the main 2-speed pump drawing water through
the larger side of the cartridge during normal operation and during
each skimming/heating cycle. Combined, both halves work together
to give you clean water by trapping suspended particles on their
outer surface.
Debris are filtered 24-hours by the circulation pump

Periodically, the polyester mesh (pleated) filter will need a more
thorough cleaning to remove imbedded oils and minerals. For this,
we suggest cleaning as illustrated above (step D), followed by
soaking the filter overnight in a plastic container filled with a solution
of water and a specially formulated filter cleanser available from
your Portofino dealer.
CAUTION! Never scrub the polyester mesh filter cartridge
with a brush as this will cause the polyester mesh to wear
out and come apart. Never let the spa pump run or have
a filter cycle come on without a filter cartridge in the skimmer compartment. Running the spa without a filter cartridge may permit debris to enter the spa plumbing and
void the warranty!
The average life expectancy of the polyester mesh filter cartridge is
approximately two years with proper care and water quality
maintenance. The smaller stage 2 filter cannot be cleaned and
must be replaced (thrown-out) every 3-months, or as needed. DO
NOT reuse this cartridge! Attempts to reuse this cartridge will
reintroduce debris back into your spa! Replacement cartridges may
be purchased from your Portofino dealer.
10.2 Draining And Refilling
WARNING: Read This Before Draining
To prevent damage to the spa’s components, turn off
power to the spa at the circuit breaker before draining it.
Do not turn power back on until your spa has been
refilled.
CAUTION: There are certain precautions to keep in mind
when draining your spa. If it is extremely cold, and the
spa is outdoors, freezing could occur in the plumbing or
the equipment. On the other hand, if it is hot outdoors, do
not leave the spa’s surface exposed to direct sunlight for
long periods.

To drain Solo model, first, shut off the power to the spa. Next, remove the drain cap, then open the equipment access panel and
locate the drain valve and turn handle to open.
(page 28).
power to the spa. Pull the external drain cap from the wood skirt
(attached to it is a drain hose) and continue pulling upward until it is
above the water line. Connect garden hose and drain spa. After
draining spa, refer to section 7.1 (page 9) for filling instructions.
To drain Metro and Caprio models, first, shut off the
Refer to section 13.1
10.3 Cleaning The Spa Interior
To preserve the sheen of your spa’s surface, it is crucial that you
avoid using abrasive cleaners or cleaners which have adverse
chemical effects on the surface. If you are not certain about the
suitability of a particular cleaner, please consult your authorized
Portofino dealer. Regardless of the cleanser used, use extreme
care to assure that no soap residue is left on the surface. This could
cause foaming when the spa is refilled.
10.4 Cleaning The Pillows
Remove and clean the headrest pillows as needed with soapy water
using a cloth or soft-bristle brush. To maintain water resistance and
luster, apply a quality vinyl conditioner once a month. Always remove the pillows when adding chemical shock treatment to the hot
tub water. The pillows can be returned to the hot tub when the
sanitizer reading drops below 5 ppm.
IMPORTANT: Never attempt to remove the pillows by
pulling on them! The pillows utilize a bolt-on design that
prohibits removal without tools.
To remove pillows:
1. Grasp center pillow insert (A) with
finger tips and gently pry outward
from pillow base (C).
2. Use a standard screwdriver to
loosen and remove mounting
bolts (B) from pillow base.
3. Assemble in reverse order after
cleaning. DO NOT overtighten
pillow mounting bolts!
20
10.5 Maintaining The Cover
Using the Portofino insulating spa cover anytime the spa is not in
use will significantly reduce your operating costs, heat-up time and
maintenance requirements. To prolong the life of the cover, handle it
with care and clean it regularly using mild soap and water. Periodic
treatments with a special conditioner developed for Sundance spa
covers will help protect against deterioration caused by UV rays
from the sun. Never allow anyone to stand or sit on the cover, and
avoid dragging it across rough surfaces.
10.6 Maintaining The Wood Cabinet
With time and exposure to the elements, the wood on your spa will
tend to lose its new appearance. Protecting or reviving the wood
surface is a fairly simple process. Light sanding with fine-grit sandpaper will help smooth any roughness. Regular applications of a
penetrating wood preservative will enhance and protect the richness
of the wood. A specially formulated wood stain available from your
Sundance dealer is ideal for this job.
shellac or other surface sealant to the wood. These tend to react
with the chemicals in the wood and the UV rays of the sun, causing
yellowing, flaking and peeling.
Note: Do not apply varnish,
10.7 Maintaining The Synthetic Cabinet
Your new spa’s synthetic cabinet requires little or no maintenance of
any kind. To clean, simply wipe cabinet with a clean towel and mild
soap solution.
CAUTION: Never spray cabinet with a garden hose for any
reason since this action may induce an electrical short in
the spa’s electrical equipment.
10.8 Winterizing The Spa
Your Portofino spa is designed to automatically protect itself against
freezing when operating properly. During periods of severe freezing
temperatures, you should check periodically to be certain that the
electrical supply to the spa has not been interrupted. If you do not
intend to use your spa, or if there is a prolonged power outage
21
during periods of severe freezing temperatures, it is important that
all water be removed from the spa and equipment to protect
against damage from freezing. For expert winterization of your spa,
contact your authorized Portofino dealer.
10.9 Maintaining Water Quality
Maintaining the quality of the water within specified limits will serve
to enhance your enjoyment and prolong the life of the spa’s equipment. It is a fairly simple task, but it requires regular attention
because the water chemistry involved is a balance of several
factors. A careless attitude in regard to water maintenance will
result in poor and potentially unhealthy conditions for soaking and
even damage to your spa investment. For specific guidance on
maintaining water quality, consult your authorized Portofino dealer
who can recommend appropriate chemical products for sanitizing
and balancing your spa water.
CAUTION: Never store spa chemicals inside the spa’s
equipment bay.
10.10 Controlling pH
pH is a measure of relative acidity or alkalinity of water and is
measured on a scale of 0 to 14. The midpoint of 7 is neutral, above
7 is alkaline, and below 7 is acidic.
In spa water, it is very important to maintain a slightly alkaline
condition of 7.2 to 7.8. Problems become proportionally severe
when this range is exceeded or diminished. A low pH will be corrosive to metals in the spa equipment. A high pH will cause minerals
to deposit on the interior surface of the spa and equipment (scaling).
In addition, the ability of the sanitation agents to keep the spa clean
is severely affected as the pH moves beyond the ideal range. Your
Portofino dealer can provide you with any chemicals and instructions you may need to adjust the pH of your spa water.
22
10.11 Sanitizing / Using Additives
To destroy bacteria and organic compounds in the spa water, a
sanitizing agent must be used regularly. Consult your Sundance
dealer for specific sanitizing instructions.
IMPORTANT: Do not use Trichlor in your spa. This
chemical can have an extremely corrosive effect on
certain materials in the spa. Damage caused by use of
this chemical, or improper use of any chemicals, is not
covered under the manufacturer’s warranty. Many other
additives are available for your spa. Some are
necessary to compensate for out-of-balance water, some
aid in cosmetic water treatment, and others simply alter
the feel or smell of the water. Your authorized Portofino
dealer can advise you on the use of these additives.
23
11.0 Error Conditions / Error Messages
11.1 Summer Logic
When the actual spa water temperature reaches up to
2 °F (1 °C) above the set temperature, the spa goes
into “summer logic.” The circulation pump will turn off
automatically to avoid adding additional heat to the
water, eventually creating an overheat condition. This setting
is not user-programmable.

F (35 °C).
11.2 Overheat Condition
WARNING! DO NOT ENTER HOT TUB WATER!
Water is too hot. Overheat protection. Heater is
deactivated. Spa water temperature is above
acceptable limits. When the actual water temperature
is approximately 2 °F (1 °C) above the set temperature, the circulation pump will stop operating to reduce (frictional) heating. If the spa
water temperature continues to rise and gets above 112 °F (44 °C),
the spa will go into an “OH” overheat condition.
To Correct Condition:
1. Remove the spa’s cover and allow your spa to cool down.
2. Reduce the temperature setting.
3. When the water temperature drops below 106 °F (41 °C), the
spa will resume normal operation.
4. If the water does not drop below 106 °F (41 °C), contact your
authorized dealer.
There are a number of unique functions designed into your spa to
